Reverberating Dreams - the Story of an OTA Chamber

Paper i proceeding, 2017

By the late 90's Prof. Per-Simon Kildal came to the insight that reverberation chambers could be useful tools for characterizing small antennas and wireless devices in multipath channels. This was a revolutionizing idea that was not so well received at first. However, with perseverance, he worked through the challenges to see his dream become a reality. This paper is to recognize Prof. Kildal's contributions carried out at Chalmers, the spin-off company Bluetest, but also the contributions of many other people that have been key to materializing his dream.
